Story behind the song

I was in the middle of recording a rock album when I felt the sudden urge to write a mellow acoustic song. I wanted to write a pretty song about a mice loveable black sheep. Nothing else.

Lyrics

Black Sheep
Words and Music by John Thomas - 2004

Black sheep sleeps on a hill all alone
No shepherds love, but still they need his wool
To warm their beds and to make pillows for their heads
His wool is the best

But still he was always, always alone

His mother wore a crown and his father wore a frown
They were the whitest and the brightest of the best
how could a God give them a son they could not love
with a dark son, it's better to have non

So he was always, always alone

Winter fell with clippers in their hands
they would keep their children warm with a pair of black wool pants
With out a coat and still with out a home
he fell asleep one last time, a bald sheep in the snow

and he was always, always alone
he was always, always alone.
